Picture this~
An empty room
Totally white
with only
2 chairs~
One for you
&
One for
JESUS.
What thoughts are running through your head?
Tears fill my eyes
just thinking about it
& right now I don't know why.
Could it be that
I have complicated my relationship with JESUS?
Have I made it about wanting blessings from HIM,
instead of just desiring HIM?
Have I become so distracted that I have filled the room
with so many other things,
that I can't even see HIM?
Just you
&
JESUS,
sitting in an empty room
What would you say? How would you feel?
I would say that
I am sorry
because I haven't always
put HIM first.
And then I can picture
JESUS
looking into my eyes with
such
Compassion
Gentleness
Sweetness
Without Condemnation,
even though I would want to hide my head in shame,
as these words would be swirling in my head~
"I am not good enough to be sitting here, just YOU & I."
"Why would you even want to spend time with just ME?"
And
JESUS
would still be looking
into my eyes & into your eyes with such
Compassion
Gentleness
Sweetness
Without Condemnation
because that is
Who
JESUS IS
&
nothing
that you or I feel
or
have done or not done
can ever change that
because
it has always been about
You & I
because
JESUS
made everything
about US
the moment
"HE made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
HE humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!" (Philippians 2:8)
Just so
HE
could sit with
each one of us~
ONE on one~
every second of every day,
so that
we can be filled with
HIS Compassion
HIS Gentleness
HIS Sweetness
HIS Acceptance~
making every moment
the best moment
if only
we always picture ourselves
alone
in
An empty room
Totally white
with only
2 chairs~
One for you
&
One for
JESUS~
